Ikea is coming to Aberdeen and I could not be more excited if I tried. The best bit of all is that my partner is going to be working there so I can not wait to get the flat decked out in some Ikea (with a discount) pieces and create that dream home Iv been wanting. So I have put together a little wishlist of my must get pieces for around the home.
For my bedroom I would love to get my paws on the
below items. The furniture's all over the place with style and colour that I would love everything
to go black to match my vanity and large standing mirror. The room
has a dark colour scheme anyway (just how I like it) with beautiful
deep green and purple walls.
I just know that this mirror opposite
the window would help brighten up the room. With the same sort of
design as the rest of the furniture already in the room it would be
the perfect addition. I plan on hanging up my hair dyer and
straighteners so that's why I have chosen these hooks. An adjustable
light would make putting on my make-up when its dark outside so much
easier and you can never get enough storage (especially when it can
be hidden).
Previously when I had driven to the
Glasgow Ikea we came across boxes that we now store our clothes in.
This self unit is actually made to hold these boxes so it would be
perfect for cleaning up the space in our wardrobe. The drawer inserts
Id love to get two, my plans are to put my make-up inside this using
the below inserts. A shoe rack I feel is rather self explanatory and
having so many pairs of shoes it would make life so much easier to
have them organised. With the baskets I have the idea of placing my
yoga mat inside it to keep them cleaner - and hopefully stop the cats
clawing them.
Do you like to shop in Ikea? What's your favourite
item?

I have that lamp and it is brilliant, quite bright too x
ReplyDeleteI love okra for storage solutions, if you have a small space you can guarantee they will have something to fit. I do like the idea of scandi living with tons of relevant storage areas.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant wishlist, I love Ikea so much! I am obsessed with their kallax storage!
